This is of course true but I still choose to dismiss the political nonsense concerning the (supposed) repair of the economy as mere gesture of action. It’s unlikely to have gotten this far if these political decisions and incessant, inter-party arguing over proper action hadn’t been mere gesture all along.
What else can we expect from politics though? Perhaps one day we’ll finally create democracy in a genuine way. For now, we’ll just have to experience the failures of “representative democracy” which is neither representative nor democracy. Comedian and social critic George Carlin brazenly spoke out against voting precisely in part because of this garbage playing out now. His wisdom lives on.
